Roudnice

Roudnice is a village in the Hradec Králové region in eastern Bohemia, the Czech Republic. It was the birthplace of František Xavier Matějka (1793 - 1860), the father of the famous Polish painter Jan Matejko.
The village is home to Roudnice Castle, the fourth largest castle in the Czech Republic. The
first structure on the site of the castle was a fortress built in the 12th century, a popular
summer retreat for Prague’s archbishops and supposedly where Jan Hus was ordained as a
priest. In the 14th and 15th centuries the original Romanesque building gained Gothic
additions as it moved from religious to secular ownership.
The fortress passed into the hands of the Lobkowicz family in 1603, when Zdeněk Vojtěch,
1st Prince Lobkowicz (15681628), married the castle's owner, Polyxena Pernštejn
(1566-1642). Their son Václav Eusebius, 2nd Prince Lobkowicz (1609-1677) undertook major
renovations to the structure, commissioning two Italian architects to demolish most of the
original fortress and construct a 200-room baroque residence. The new building included a
theater, a clock tower, and a chapel decorated with magnificent frescoes, while riding stables
and large formal gardens were developed in the grounds. Although most of the original fortress
was demolished in the renovations, one vaulted room still contains the base of a 12th century
column. Roudnice became a repository for objects from the Lobkowicz family’s collections,
including works of art, religious objects, musical instruments, and books and manuscripts.
During World War II, the castle and its collections were confiscated by the Nazi regime, and
the building was used as an SS youth training camp. The library was gutted by the occupying
forces and the castle’s west wing was damaged by bombs in the last days of the war. When
Maximilian Lobkowicz returned Roudnice after the end of the war, he began repairs to the
damaged castle, which was confiscated again in 1948 when the Communist government
came to power.
Under Communist rule, Roudnice became a military music school as well as administrative
offices, and housed the Central Bohemian Gallery of Modern Art, which still remains in the
castle’s riding hall. The castle was restituted to the Lobkowicz family in the 1990s, and they
continued to rent Roudnice to the military music school, which eventually closed in 2008 after
a loss of government funding.
